Tree Seed Experiment

Sorta reminds me of a mimosa seed pod.

I second Mimosa seed pod. @black_cat

I looked them up and all the pictures I see are way smaller than the tree these came from.

Get a picture if the tree when you go there again!

I'll try to tomorrow.

I love mimosa. They was pretty easy for me to grow. I have one that just sprouted out front too. I want to dig it up and bonsai it this spring, if it over winters this year. I love how they close their leaves at night!

I've seen them get pretty large. Most people keep them trimmed.

How do you bonsai something?

I agree. It could also just be since it was imported, and the climate at this farm allow it to grow differently than it would in its native environment. I could also just be thing about this tree. I had a 110-120 foot tall oak tree that wasn’t supposed to surpass 80!

Practice. It’s very difficult and requires years and years of patience and precise care

I don't know if this specific tree was imported, just that it might have been, so it could really be anything. There are banana plants on another part of the property. They don't grow any fruit, but still.

Not to be discouraged! It’s fun, you can do it! Although there are types of trees it is easiest with. Look up “bonsai beginner” on You Tube
